The RIA and KnowHow have recently collaborated to produce a landmark study aimed at assisting all restoration businesses with their business decision making, the “Cost Of Doing Business” survey. The results of the survey have long reaching implications on how all restoration businesses, large or small, can more effectively run their business. Leighton Healey, CEO of KnowHow, and Anthony Nelson, RIA Board Member and Co-Chair of the RIA Independent Pricing Taskforce, as well as  the Member Acquisition Manager & Group Facilitator at PivotMyBiz, join R&R to discuss the roots of the study, the rationale, the results, and of course how this study can help businesses today!
